You’ve probably heard that the country down under, Aka Australia, is the land of nope. Well, its kind of true, as Australia does have way more lethal animals that the average country does, but in true Australian fashion, it turns out that in the past it was 100x worse.

@@RCSVirginia no the aboriginal hunting strategies would suck against larger animals. Their whole strategy is just hitting something really hard after chasing it. There’s a certain point where an animal gets so large that this strategy doesn’t work anymore Edit: mammoths went extinct because humans chased them off cliffs and dropping rocks on top of them. Aboriginals neither did this nor hunted mammoths. Also the indigenous population of Australia only used arrows and spears for fishing. Also also, no I’m not saying they used the boomerang. One of their most used weapons was a basic club, simple and effective. Why do you think the native population is so good at tracking and has a whole language focused around it? Because it was useful at chasing targets to smack with a club.

Ha Ha - That photo of the kid holding the Bunya pine cone against his head at 0:52 seconds is my son Oscar. It was taken in 2012 after we walked in the Cumberland State Forest, Sydney, NSW. One of the trails was closed because these massive pine cones could potentially fall out of the trees and kill someone, but we picked up one of the fallen pine cones, and I took this photo when we got home. Someone suggested I upload it to the Bunya Pine (Araucaria bidwillii) Wiki page, so I did. I'm thrilled that ExtincZoo used the photo; it brought back happy memories.

Australia is a good example of how the cold slows evolution. When things have to hibernate, they spend more energy surviving than evolving and thriving, hence in places like central Canada where it gets extremely cold, the spiders tend to be small and arent poisonous/deadly. Even if you travel west to warmer climates in Canada, the spiders start to become dangerous.

As an Australian I always wondered why Mexico, Brazil, India, Vietnam, and Indonesia don't get the sensational "everything will kill you" hype Australia does. All of them have deadly snakes and deadly crocodiles, if they have oceans they all have sharks, jellyfish, and stingrays, and yet Australia is the only one of those countries that doesn't have any bears or big cats... So what does Australia have that makes us stand out from those countries? My theory: Abundance of British people comparing Australia to Europe instead of Indonesia, it's the only one considered "First World/Developed" so we are a lot more dramatic about having relatively normal tropical wildlife

Well, in my case, it's cuz all the deadly creatures here in Brazil are either on the countryside(you can only see them IF you want to risk your life where the forest is deep tho), a closed off island which you need explicit permission from our military forces to enter. Or in the northern (where the amazon forest is) and northeastern states(where there are sharks whom are capable of invading rivers through the sea), which are obviously far away as most of our population lives on the southern/southwest regions. Though, when storms occur then go away animals from different states can appear, which ends up on the news, and in some states people can eat our jacarés(not crocodiles or aligators) and wildboars to cull some of their populations and farmers are allowed to defend their livestock from predators.

I'm Indian and a lot of our folk tales have mentions of weird creatures and a lot of stories about crazy creatures passed down too. Even when the brits colonized us, they met with a lot of predators, including man eating tigers and other big cats (most of which they hunted to extinction for game), down south India and in the eastern parts of India, wildlife can get even more extreme but I think there is a great difference in culture. Partly because of the majorly hindu religion which has a lot of gods based on nature and animal, people learnt to respect them and tried to coexist. If you want to see something crazy, just google lion and leopard sightings in india lol, a lot of them just show up in cities too even at times XD. Personally I'm no expert but I think the australian landscape and wildlife is crazier because it was probably left untouched for longer and evolved freak animals against the freak climate. India may have it all, coldest mountains, wettest forests but they're all limited to smaller regions and local fauna don't have to compete as much. Say an animal evolved for cold won't ever get to compete with an animal evolved for forest life.

I live in Perth, Western Australia. Back in 2013 i was training for a half marathon. I used to run alongside Swan River on a long track that weaved in and out of bushland. One particular day i was busy jogging along and realised really needed to urinate. So i quickly ducked into the bush to relieve myself. All of a sudden, as i was stood there, a gigantic Eastern Brown Snake lunged directly at my crotch and missed it by about an inch. I was so startled that i fell back and pissed all over myself. I managed to jump back onto my feet and momentarily gawped at the huge snake that was still in front of me. It must have been at least 2 metres long and i was stunned at how thick and powerful it looked. I had never seen such an imposing wild reptile up close. It's head looked truly prehistoric, with a remarkably angry expression. It quickly began coiling up into a striking position again, so i bolted in the opposite direction as fast as my legs could carry me. Sometimes i get a shudder down my spine thinking about how close i came to getting tagged on my pecker by a deadly Eastern Brown Snake and how dreadful my death would have been if it had succeeded in its mission.

I have a bit of a hypothesis that the reason why Australia has so many venomous snakes, jumbo spiders, and mad cassowarys etc. is because those animals had to live alongside the psycho Pleistocene critters.

The ability to fight other animals and incorporate venom might depend on how big the land mass is, Australia is huge, it has been known that on smaller tropical islands, large venomous snakes living there become smaller and lose their venom when they have no prey, that's what evolution does over time, if competition is always there, it doesn't make sense for them to lose their venom

At least we don't have large predatory mammals like bears or big cats. Most of our deadly stuff can be more easily avoided (on land at least), since you can generally outrun a snake and you can certainly outrun a spider. As long as you see them before you're on top of them, you can avoid them, so just pay attention to where you step when in nature so you don't get surprised. Stay well away from the crocs though and don't swim anywhere there's a sign telling you not to.

The indigenous people of Australia were incredible to survive amongst these monsters. It is believed that the fastest human existed during this time. A bare footprint left mid-stride in mud was recorded in Australia (20,000 years ago), and was calculated to be running at 37km/h just shy of Usain Bolt’s top speed. Not only were they bare foot running in wet mud, but from the way the footprint was set, it is likely they were still accelerating, yet to hit top speed.

@yanicemtl 27 дней назад
​@@kumaranvij I dont have the source of it but yes you can. 1 - Based on the size of their foot, you can estimate their height. Compare it to the foot size of other complete specimens from that era to know what their proportions looked like and you will then scale the found footprint to estimate the height of the running specimen. 2 - You then scale down a current human skeleton running to the size of the found specimen to estimate what the distance between 2 steps would be at a given speed with maximum range of motion. 3 - By calculating the distance between the footprints, knowing the size of the squeleton and it's range of motion, you can estimate the speed it was running at. The depth of the footprint can also help to determine the speed because if you know the weight of the specimen (which is not too hard to find or estimate) + the area of their footprint + the density of the mud, you can find what force was needed to create a footprint that deep with that given surface and weight, which could confirm the speed that human was running at. And for the acceleration part of it, it's quite simple, you just have to measure if the distance between the footprints, if it keeps increasing, you'll know that it was clearly accelerating. Hope that helps a bit!

Sorry, you're a good talker, but I don't think your arguments hold water. You can't just estimate everything based on one footprint, that makes no sense.

The most terrifying predator in prehistoric Australia definitely were the humans. The nightmarish efficiency with which homo sapiens drove all these competing predator species to complete extinction is truly horrible. Big size, sharp teeth and venom are no match for big brains, advanced pack hunting tactics and spears. The same thing happened in the Americas and Eurasia as well. Megafauna everywhere just goes extinct the moment the first humans show up. The only exception is Africa because the megafauna there evolved alongside humans and found habitats and niches where they don't directly compete with humans. But even a lot of the African megafauna is threatened nowadays by human expansion and encroachement.

I really love indigenous australian history and just to add some additional information: the first nations people (indigenous australians) practiced something called 'firestick farming' in which was a method of ecosystem management they used to keep the land suitable for themselves as the dry and often shrubby landscape of most of australia is very susceptible to natural wildfires. firestick farming was basically the practice of creating controlled fires on a schedule to get rid of the excess plant life like grass or shrub that - if left unchecked - would increase the likeliness and detrimental affect of a wildfire.

As an Australian, it does sort of annoy me that everything on Australia is purporting how dangerous it is. Yes, there are venomous animals and insects but you learn to adjust your lifestyle and behavior so that you don’t encounter them. Australians that live there don’t just cower in fear and it’s annoying that everyone looking in is only seeing the worst. For instance, I have friends (I live in America now) that don’t want to come over there because, “no fuck that!!!” And they genuinely fear the wildlife there. It’s a legit factor in not wanting to go there. That is -super- unfortunate. Not to mention, any time I ask an American what is they know about Australia, they just say “big ass bugs and poison” or I’ve genuinely been asked “can you ride a kangaroo?” It’s borderline racist. People literally know nothing about Australia. My point is that hyperfocusing on the potential danger of Australia’s wildlife is a valid point of discussion but it perpetuates and stokes the flames of this idea that it is a really dangerous place to be - that couldn’t be further from the truth. Australia is super lax and the people are as well. You should really go there 😅

idk but I can imagine it was a slow war of attrition style pestering them from afar with spears or shepherd sling, arrows, traps and spike barricades ironically it was their size was their downfall cause they couldn't avoid detection. If they're still alive today, ironically their best defense would be local laws lol

I saw a video of a neighborhood in Australia where these spiders shoot these webs over all of the tall ass trees that in the neighborhood, and they shoot them from tree to tree, and they're like hundreds of feet across, so they literally cover the entire top of the entire neighborhood, and there are thousands of large spiders in these webs. So any time you walk outside there are just a ton of spiders hanging above you. I guess that's normal in some places. It's even more shocking when you see it on video. Yikes!
